Abstract
Introduction/Purpose To determine the diagnostic accuracy and complication rates of ultrasound-guided, percutaneous core needle biopsies of soft tissue masses in the hand and fingers. Methods Reports from all ultrasound-guided procedures between 21 May 2014 and 17 March 2022 were queried for keywords including "hand", OR "finger", AND "biopsy". Patient demographics, lesion size and location, biopsy needle gauge and the number of cores obtained were recorded. The final pathology of the mass excision was then compared with the core needle biopsy (CNB) for each patient. Results Sixty-six records were reviewed, and 37 patients met inclusion criteria. Maximum lesion diameter averaged 1.45 cm with a range between 0.4 and 4.3 cm. The frequency of needle gauges used was 14G (14%), 16G (24%), 18G (38%), 20G (11%) and 'not reported' (14%). The mean number of tissue cores obtained was 2.9 (SD 1.2; range 1 to 6), excluding nine cases that reported 'multiple'. The frequency of CNB diagnoses included tenosynovial giant cell tumour (TGCT) at 30%, ganglion cyst at 11% and epidermal inclusion cyst at 5%. CNB was 100% sensitive in detecting the three (8%) malignancies. Of the 37 tumours biopsied, 16 were surgically excised. One angiomyoma was originally diagnosed as a haemangioma on CNB, but all other histologic results were concordant for a diagnostic accuracy of 97%. Discussion Small soft tissue masses in the hands and fingers, even those less than 1 cm, are often amenable to ultrasound-guided CNB. Performance under image guidance facilitates retrieval of core specimens adquate for histologic diagnosis with relatively few passes using higher gauge needles. Conclusion Overall, ultrasound-guided CNB of the hand and fingers is safe and highly accurate in diagnosing soft tissue tumours. The accuracy is unrelated to the needle's gauge, the number of passes and the size of the lesions.

Abstract
(1) Background: Biopsies are the gold standard for the diagnosis of musculoskeletal tumors. In this study, we aimed to explore whether indocyanine green near-infrared fluorescence imaging can assist in the biopsy of bone and soft tissue tumors and improve the success rate of biopsy. (2) Method: We recruited patients with clinically considered bone and soft tissue tumors and planned biopsies. In the test group, indocyanine green (0.3 mg/kg) was injected. After identifying the lesion, a near-infrared fluorescence camera system was used to verify the ex vivo specimens of the biopsy in real time. If the biopsy specimens were not developed, we assumed that we failed to acquire lesions, so the needle track and needle position were adjusted for the supplementary biopsy, and then real-time imaging was performed again. Finally, we conducted a pathological examination. In the control group, normal biopsy was performed. (3) Results: The total diagnosis rate of musculoskeletal tumors in the test group was 94.92% (56/59) and that in the control group was 82.36% (42/51). In the test group, 14 cases were not developed, as seen from real-time fluorescence in the core biopsy, and then underwent the supplementary biopsy after changing the puncture direction and the location of the needle channel immediately, of which 7 cases showed new fluorescence. (4) Conclusions: Using the near-infrared fluorescence real-time development technique to assist the biopsy of musculoskeletal tumors may improve the accuracy of core biopsy and help to avoid missed diagnoses, especially for some selected tumors.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There are no consensus guidelines regarding the use of percutaneous needle biopsy for the diagnosis of soft tissue and bone tumors. The aim of this study was to understand the efficacy of image-guided percutaneous biopsy for pediatric patients with soft tissue and bony masses, the role of intraoperative image guidance, and diagnostic accuracy. PATIENTS AND METHODS A retrospective institutional chart review was performed on patients who underwent percutaneous biopsy of soft tissue or bone tumors between 2007 and 2017. Data collected included preoperative imaging, type of biopsy, demographics, insurance status, number of samples taken, and pathologic results. RESULTS One hundred forty-one children and young adults underwent 169 biopsies. Female patients received 48.2% of biopsies. The mean age was 14.3 ± 7.0 years. Core needle biopsies made up 89.4% of procedures, while 10.6% were fine needle aspirate. The mean number of samples per patient was 3.6 ± 2.5. All patients had imaging guidance, with computed tomography used in 44.7% of patients, 9.9% using fluoroscopy, 7.1% using ultrasound for guidance, and 53 (37.6%) patients had more than one modality. Diagnostic specimens were obtained in 97.9% of biopsies. The most common overall pathology was osteoid osteoma. The most common malignant tumors were osteosarcoma and Ewing's sarcoma. CONCLUSION Image-guided percutaneous biopsy is a safe and effective method of obtaining accurate tissue samples in children and young adults with soft tissue or bone masses. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level 4-Study of diagnostic test.

Abstract
PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to assess if radiologists assisted by deep learning (DL) algorithms can achieve diagnostic accuracy comparable to that of pre-surgical biopsies in benign-malignant differentiation of musculoskeletal tumors (MST). METHODS We first conducted a systematic review of literature to get the respective overall diagnostic accuracies of fine-needle aspiration biopsy (FNAB) and core needle biopsy (CNB) in differentiating between benign and malignant MST, by synthesizing data from the articles meeting our inclusion criteria. To compared against the accuracies reported in literature, we then invited 4 radiologists, respectively with 2 (A), 6 (B), 7 (C), and 33 (D) years of experience in interpreting musculoskeletal MRI to perform diagnostic tests on our own dataset (n = 62), with and without assistance of a previously developed DL algorithm. The gold standard for benign-malignant differentiation was histopathologic confirmation or clinical/radiographic follow-up. RESULTS For FNAB, a meta-analysis containing 4604 samples met the inclusion criteria, with the overall diagnostic accuracy reported to be 0.77. For CNB, an overall accuracy of 0.86 was derived by synthesizing results from 7 original research articles containing a total of 587 samples. On our internal MST dataset, the invited radiologists, respectively, achieved diagnostic accuracies of 0.84 (A), 0.89 (B), 0.87 (C), and 0.90 (D), with the assistance of DL. CONCLUSION Use of DL algorithms on musculoskeletal dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI improved the benign-malignant differentiation accuracy of radiologists to a level comparable to that of pre-surgical biopsies. The developed DL algorithms have a potential to lower the risk of miss-diagnosing malignancy in radiological practice.

Abstract
Simple Summary Determining the biology of mesenchymal tumor, imaging alone is usually not enough, and the final diagnosis is established through tissue analysis If the indication to perform a biopsy is not established frequently enough, an undesired unplanned resection of a sarcoma may result, and conversely, a patient’s discomfort as well as costs may increase. In here, using a real-world data registry of quality, we included the absolute number of a consecutive series of patients, to determine the prevalence of biopsies and its related diagnosis, to establish a reference, which may allow for the definition of a quality indicator for the work-up within a multidisciplinary team. Abstract The ratio of malignancy in suspicious soft tissue and bone neoplasms (RMST) has not been often addressed in the literature. However, this value is important to understand whether biopsies are performed too often, or not often enough, and may therefore serve as a quality indicator of work-up for a multidisciplinary team (MDT). A prerequisite for the RMST of an MDT is the assessment of absolute real-world data to avoid bias and to allow comparison among other MDTs. Analyzing 950 consecutive biopsies for sarcoma-suspected lesions over a 3.2-year period, 55% sarcomas were confirmed; 28% turned out to be benign mesenchymal tumors, and 17% non-mesenchymal tumors, respectively. Of these, 3.5% were metastases from other solid malignancies, 1.5% hematologic tumors and 13% sarcoma simulators, which most often were degenerative or inflammatory processes. The RMST for biopsied lipomatous lesions was 39%. The ratio of unplanned resections was 10% in this series. Reorganizing sarcoma work-up into integrating practice units (IPU) allows the assessment of real-world data with absolute values over the geography, thereby enabling the definition of quality indicators and addressing cost efficiency aspects of sarcoma care.

Abstract
Simple Summary In patients with unclear soft tissue lesions, treatment planning largely depends on histology. Core needle biopsy is the diagnostic standard in these cases. The aim of this retrospective study was to investigate accuracy and safety of ultrasound guided core needle biopsy at a tertiary referral center. We show that ultrasound guided biopsy was feasible as a one stop shop procedure in an outpatient setting in 87.6% of the cases. The rate of conclusive biopsies was 88.5%. After surgical resection, the dignity, tumor type and histopathological grading of the biopsy matched one of the resection specimens in 97.2%, 92.7% and 92.5% of the cases, respectively. Major complications occurred in 0.8% of the cases. With this study, we confirm that ultrasound guided core needle biopsy is safe, effective and can be performed at the first outpatient presentation to speed up the diagnostic and therapeutic cascade in sarcoma patients. Abstract Background: The aim of this study was to investigate diagnostic accuracy, safety and histologic results of ultrasound guided core needle biopsy (CNB) in patients with soft tissue lesions (STL) at a tertiary referral center. Methods: A retrospective analysis of all consecutive patients undergoing ultrasound guided CNB for STL at our sarcoma outpatient service between January 2015 and August 2020 was performed. Results: A total of 392 patients were identified. Main histologic entities were sarcomas, lipomas and desmoid tumors. Biopsy was performed in an outpatient setting in 87.6% of the cases. Conclusive biopsies were obtained in 88.5% of the cases. In patients who underwent surgical resection after CNB, the concordance of dignity, tumor entity and histopathological grading between biopsy and resection specimen were 97.2%, 92.7% and 92.5% respectively. The risk of inconclusive CNB was highest in intraabdominal or retroperitoneal tumors (19.5%) and lowest in lesions at the lower extremity (4.4%). Major complications after CNB occurred in three cases (0.8%). No case of biopsy tract seeding was observed during the study period. Conclusions: Ultrasound guided CNB for STL at first presentation in a dedicated surgical outpatient setting is a safe procedure and yields a high diagnostic accuracy.

Abstract
With recent advances in imaging technology, the frequency of detecting musculoskeletal lesions has also increased. Percutaneous image-guided needle biopsy is occasionally required for the diagnosis of such lesions. Moreover, in the era of personalized cancer care, chances in histopathological diagnosis and the importance of histopathological diagnosis by percutaneous needle biopsy are increasing. However, as percutaneous needle biopsy is not a common procedure for musculoskeletal lesions, careful planning and the application of adequate techniques such as hydrodissection and the trans-osseous approach are occasionally required. In this review, we have summarized the indications and techniques for percutaneous image-guided needle biopsy for musculoskeletal lesions, including lymphatic lesions.

Abstract
Bone and soft tissue tumors are a largely heterogeneous group of tumors. Biopsy of musculoskeletal (MSK) tumors is sometimes a challenging procedure. Although the open biopsy is still considered the gold standard for the biopsy of MSK lesions, core needle biopsy can replace it in most cases, with similar accuracy and a low complication rate. The biopsy should be performed in a tertiary sarcoma center where the multidisciplinary team consists of at minimum a tumor surgeon, an MSK pathologist, and an MSK radiologist who can assess all steps of the procedure. Several factors can influence the success of the biopsy including the lesion characteristics, the equipment, and the method used for the procedure. This review highlights some of the important aspects regarding the biopsy of the MSK tumors, with special attention to imaging a guided core needle biopsy and highlighting some of the recent advancements and controversies in the field.
